Netgear PS101 Mini Print Server

Have purchased product in December 2009 and to a
Printer HP LaserJet 4L-directly to the parallel port
connected. The integration over in my home network
a Netgear Gigabit Ethernet switch GS608 (8 slots)
worked using the installation manual without
Problems. All PC to work with the operating systems Win2000 Prof. or WinXP Prof.
The print server has a FixedIPAdresse - as in the
Proposed installation instructions - configured.
From an administrator's computer from - on the all Komponeten
the CD-ROM have been installed - were the
appropriate settings (IP address, subnet mask, gateway IP address) made.
On the other Coputern the Add Printer Wizard is installed and proceed according to the installation instructions. Only the PC (notebook) which is connected via an access point as a wireless device to the home network, had another way to select [Start -> Settings -> Printers -> Printer -> Double - -> The operating system's Add Printer Wizard is started -> selecting the option "Local printer" -> selection of the printer port connection / Description / printer (for example: "... PS3F86D / Print Server Port / HPLaserJet 4L") -> selection from
Manufacturer / printer (eg: "HP / HP LaserJet 4L" if drivers
is already installed, otherwise "driver disk" needed) -> finished with "Next" was installed -> Print a test page -> If the test is successful, the printer addressed via Notebook].
The Mini Print Server Netgear PS 1001 is for printers
Parallel interface ideally suited because it is directly on the interface place, so instead of the cable connector further requires no place and reliably. A mature product that can be recommended.
